First of all, a big THANKS to the Reunion Committee. The website is great, and I know they’ve done a lot of work planning and tracking us all down. I encourage everyone who can to attend! I’ve attended all of our other reunions and plan on this one, too. It’s always good to see “old” friends and meet new ones. With a class as large as ours, there’s always someone new to meet.
After we left RCHS in ‘68, I graduated from SD Tech and Arizona State. I married Linda and worked for Caterpillar for close to 40 years. I lost Linda to cancer in 2001 and survived cancer myself that year. I married Nancy in 2009, and we’re both happy to be in good health. I raised two sons (David and Scott). Nancy raised a daughter, Lori. We now have five grandchildren between us. We live in Illinois in the summer and spend winters in Arizona. We have two fifth wheel campers now and love to travel. My sister and I still own the ranch in Hermosa, so we spend some time there in the summer too. Mom passed away this year at age 93 and had lived on the ranch until a couple years ago.
